let's begin with erin in the nation's heartland, good morning, erin, it looks terrible. >> reporter: good morning, carol. we're getting about two inches of snow an hour, but what i want to tell you are the power outages. we talked to kansas city power and light all morning and the power outages have doubled and tripled since we first started talking to them, up to 35,000 power outages just in the kansas city metro area. there are also about 10,000 power outages in texas and another 10,000 or so in oklahoma. that's a problem for those getting heat so that's something to watch out for. also around me it's getting harder to see if you can look a little bit behind me here you don't see very many cars on the road. however the cars that we have seen have gotten stuck, one of them rolled down the hill so it is very dangerous. we also know from kansas governor sam brownback that there was a second death in this storm reported last night. so dangerous storm, carol. >> hopefully people are staying off the roads today. thanks so much, erin. let's get the latest on the storm and where it's headi

erin mcpike is in wichita where it's still coming down very hard there, isn't it, erin. >> reporter: yes, it sure is. right behind me we just saw a snow plow go by for the third time in the past hour but the road is already covered again. we also have a handy ruler to check throughout the day. it's 4 inches now and two hours ago there was nothing. so it is about 2 inches an hour and we'll see a lot more throughout the day. 9 inches at least, maybe up to 18. it's going to be a little higher in topeka where they're expecting 17 or 18 inches. as you mentioned, the governor, sam brownback, has shut down most of the state today. he's saying if you want to play in the snow, basically go nuts, but stay off the roads because the roads are pretty bad here. now, we have heard that farmers are welcoming this storm because it's been a drought for a couple of years here, so, you know, we want to see some heavy snow to help ease those drought conditions. >> and that is the silver lining if there is one, erin mcpike, you're absolutely right. you can play, get out of school today. this storm system
